COMMENTS
The triples (a, b, c) are displayed in increasing order of side b, and if sides b coincide then in increasing order of the side c; hence, this sequence of sides a is not increasing.
In the case B = 3*C, the corresponding metric relation between sides is c*a^2= (b-c)^2 * (b+c).
Equivalently, length of side common to the two angles, one being the triple of the other, of a primitive integer-sided triangle.
For the corresponding primitive triples and miscellaneous properties and references, see A353618.

FORMULA
a(n) = A353618(n, 1).
EXAMPLE
According to inequalities between a, b, c, there exist 3 types of such triangles:
a < c < b with the smallest side a = 3 of the first triple (3, 10, 8).
c < a < b with the middle side a = 35 of the 2nd triple (35, 48, 27).
c < b < a with the largest side a = 539 of the 8th triple (539, 510, 216), the first of this type.
MAPLE
for b from 4 to 9000 do
for q from 2 to floor((b-1)^(1/3)) do
a := (b-q^3) * sqrt(1+b/q^3);
if a= floor(a) and q^3 < b and igcd(a, b, q)=1 and (b-q^3) < a and a < b+q^3 then print(a); end if;
end do;
end do;
